Focusmate
I've found that keeping a short record of my sessions has improved my Focusmate experience. I log the initial goal at the beginning, and then afterwards a rating 0-5, what I accomplished, and whether I was off task. If there's no record, it's easy to let a few sessions go by without getting much done; writing it down increases my accountability to myself. And especially so if I then have a system to *go back and look* at what I've written down, or summarize it in some way. I'd be enthusiastic about a 'rate 0-5' prompt built in to FM at the end of a session, plus some graphs in your profile of your average ratings each day / week so you can see your progress.
